KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

The proposed algorithm in Part1 which is proposed in order to overcome numerical difficulties on nearly incompressible and impermeable conditions for saturated porous media is verified for accuracy and stability by analytical solutions, other methods as well as using available models in the ABAQUS software. We could be obtained good results for state variables from comparing, and the method was reasonably and stably performed for all conditions like compressible, incompressible, permeable or nearly impermeable.
